There are some drivers (Particuarly at Donnybrook) who STILL issue tickets incorrectly on the ticket machines, going in wrong direction etc, one particular occasion a inspector tried to penalty fare the passenger for this, only for another one to speak up that he got on the same time as him.

Although some drivers are VERY rude, one particular Very Rude Lady at Phibsborough I once encounterd made every passenger state their place name, with responses such as "Sorry, no place as 130" eventually she would call out to everybody at the end of the 1 euro (then 95c) tickets that THIS IS YOUR STOP, GET OFF. and pulled in, and would not move the bus until they got off.

Yes they shouldn't be cheating the system, but waiting on Navan road for half an hour during peak because of this is ridicolous
